Techniques named for breast reduction: Anchor technique, vertical breast reduction method, “Lollipop” Breast Reduction technique.
After a breast reduction Toronto patients' breasts will likely be covered with gauze and a surgical support bra. You will be able to move around normally; however, actions that involve lifting, straining, or strenuous exercise should be avoided for 6 weeks
Breast reduction is performed under general anesthesia for your utmost comfort and safety.
Breast reduction is a common procedure among young girls with overly large breasts, but it is important to note that candidates must have finished developing. Typically, this occurs around 18 years of age.
Most breast reduction procedures are completed using either a vertical incision or an “anchor” (inferior pedicle) incision.
The Anchor technique allows for the most dramatic lift and reshaping of the breasts, and is the best technique for many patients requiring a significant breast reduction.
Breast reduction surgery is generally not overly painful, and although strong pain medication may be prescribed, most often Tylenol and Advil are sufficient to help alleviate discomfort.
Breast reduction surgery is often necessary for medical reasons, such as alleviating chronic pain, skin irritation, and discomfort caused by overly large breasts. If a candidate meets certain criteria, the procedure may be covered by OHIP.
Often referred to as the “Lollipop” Breast Reduction technique, a vertical lift uses an incision made around the circumference of the areola

Initial results in 2–4 weeks, with full results developing over 3 months as collagen builds. Toronto providers typically schedule follow-ups to track progress.
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
Often, and more often than patients expect, but carriers set specific criteria. Typically they want documented symptoms such as back, neck, or shoulder pain, evidence you have tried conservative measures like physical therapy or supportive garments, and sometimes a minimum amount of tissue to be removed based on your height and weight. Photographs are usually required. Start the process early because approval can take weeks, and ask the surgeon's office whether they handle the pre-authorization, since experienced offices do this routinely.
Surgeons discuss this in grams removed rather than cup sizes, because cup sizing is not standardized across brands. Most patients go down two to three cup sizes. The goal is proportion to your frame rather than a specific letter, and the surgeon also balances how much tissue insurance may require removed against what looks right for your body. Bring photos of the outcome you have in mind.
Breast reduction consistently records among the highest satisfaction rates of any surgical procedure, cosmetic or otherwise, in published outcome studies. The reason is that it solves a functional problem and a cosmetic one simultaneously. Patients frequently describe the relief from physical symptoms as more significant than the change in appearance.
Some patients can and some cannot, and it is difficult to predict individually. Reduction removes glandular tissue and repositions the nipple, both of which can affect milk production and duct continuity. If you plan to breastfeed in future, discuss it explicitly, because certain techniques preserve more of the ductal system, and some patients choose to delay surgery until after childbearing.
Most reductions use either a vertical lollipop pattern or an anchor pattern including a scar along the fold. They are permanent. Patients in this operation are, in general, notably accepting of scars because the symptom relief is so significant, but you should see photographs of typical scar outcomes at consultation so nothing surprises you afterward.
